9th GRAND PRIX NOVA, 2021
SHORT FORMS. UK/Finland - A Fenland Symphony
SYNOPSIS:
A musical adventure: exploring stories around an eminent city at the foot of the Fens in England.
You think you know a place, but our cities are built on an array of stories and experiences. Six distinct people share insights into their lives around Cambridge, a world-famous city, known for it’s „town and gown” divide!
A
dynamic musical composition, intertwining interviews, sound effects
and an array of acoustic instruments. Developing from one genre to
another, the music reflects the energy of the speech. Although
conceptual to location, this musical composition explores themes and
narratives that exist all over modern Britain. All instruments and
sounds are recorded in Cambridgeshire, making a unique symphonic
journey from the south of the Fens.
